I'm watching the debate & so far the moderator is being pretty fair & the whole shut-down thing is great.

🍿🍿🍿

Who is she? She's great! I think she's way more fair than that other moderator at the other debate. I'm cheering for the moderator! :-) Trump has more self-control & on point than the last debate & it's so far very civil.

Biden says Rudy Giuliani is a Russian pawn? Wuat??? Seriously! He's losing the plot.

Q: would u make China pay?

Biden: I'd make China play by international rules. He'd caused the deficit up or down. Protect IP. China'd have to play by the rules. Xi has set up air identification & I said we'll fly through them.

What does he do? Embrace NK & poke our allies.

Trump: There's a very strong email talking about emails.
Q: What are u going to do?
Trump: China is going to. I just paid our farmers 28bn. Charged them on dump steel.
Biden: It's about your family & your family hurting badly. U are hurting badly right now. Can't get new tires.

Trump: Typical political states & get off the topic of China & talk about sitting around the table.
Q: Let's talk about NK. Do u see NK development of missiles a betrayal?
Trump: Obama said biggest problem we have is NK, we'll be in a war. Have a good relationship w/ KJU. No war

Q: NK conducted 6 nuclear tests during Obama admin.
Biden: I'll make it clear. Why u moving ur missile defense so close? B/c NK is a problem. Will continue to do it to control them. What's he done? Legitimize NK. His buddy is a thug.
Q: Conditions u'd meet KJU?
B: Nuclear free

Q: American families & economy. Healthcare. Over 20 mils get through Affordable Act. What'd u do?
Trump: Through the legislator I terminated individual mandate, pay a fortune to not have to pay for bad insurance. Premiums down. Pre-existing conditions'll stay. Come up w/ a new

They want to terminate 180mn plans.
Q: What's ur plan?
Biden: Pass Obama Care & become Biden Care. Public options. Qualify for medicaid, automatically enrolled. Reduce premiums & drug prices & have competition. Not 1 person'll lose insurance under my plan. Protect pre-existing.

Q: What do u think about people's concern that's it's socialized med?

Biden: Ridiculous, the fact that there's a public option that people can choose. I don't think it's a privilege but a right. Endorsement by labor unions.

Trump: Been around for >40 years & didn't do it. VP & didn't do it. He wants socialized medicine. It's not that he wants it but his VP. It's like fracking. He said he doesn't want fracking & he goes to Pennsylvania & says he'llhave fracking.

Btw, I respect the way u handle this

Biden: Biden Care is going to help drug prices down.
Trump: When he says public options he talks about destroying your medicare & your social security. Bernie tried it in his state & impossible.
Biden: Social security'll be bankrupt by 2023.
Trump: He tried to hurt SS years ago.

Biden: People don't live off the stock market. Billionaires made 700bn more dollars.
Trump: 401ks are through the roof. He doesn't come from Scranton.

Q: 12 million people out of work. 8 million out of poverty. Why no help?
Trump: Nancy doesn't want to approve it. I do.

Trump: Nancy wants a victory on 3 Nov so that's why she doesn't want it cuz she thinks helps her politically. I think it hurts.
Q: Leader of the Democratic & why haven't u pushed to pass?
Biden: They've passed the act since the summer.
Trump: Passed for Democrat cities & states.

Biden: I don't see red & blue states but the United States.
Q: Minimum wage. This is the right time to raise costs for small businesses hurting?
Biden: I do! Need to bail out businesses too!!!

Trump: By raising the minimum wage? I think it should be a state option. Alabama is different than New York. We need to help your small businesses. Proven to happen is that business fire people.

Q: U considered?

Trump: I did say but should be state option. States are diff.

Biden: People making $6-7/hr They deserve a min wage of $15. No evidence of killing biz.
Q: Ur admin separate kids at borders? Can't locate >500s
Trump: Children brought here by cartels. They built cages - pictures of cages. But it turned out by Obama. Working on uniting the kids

Biden: Violates notion of who we are
Trump: Who built the cages Joe?
Biden: Parents ripped children from their arms.
Trump: They are well take care of? Who built the cages?
Q: Obama failed to deliver immigration & record deportation?
Biden: We made a mistake. I'll be P not VP

Biden: All the DACA kids will be on the path to citizenship. We owe them a path.
Trump: They had 8 yrs to do what they're gonna do. Got rid of Catch & Release. He built cages to keep children in.

Q: Race in America. Why black & brown experience race? The talk. Regardless of class & income. Targeted by police due to color.

Biden: Daughter is a social worker...Never had to tell my daughter not reach for the club box. You are victim. There is institutional racism.

Biden: Better access to healthcare, schools & free of violence.

Trump: He's been in gov 47 yrs in 1994 when he did such harm & called them super predators. Criminal justice reform - Obama didn't do it but I did it & did a lot of arm twisting. Prison reform. Opportunity zones.

Trump: Pres Obama never gave them long-term funding & I did & I saved colleges & universities.

Biden: I never said that. They law he talked about is initiated by Barack Obama & he passed it. I am offering 20bn to states to eliminate minimum mandatory.

Trump: Why didn't you do it four years ago? You guys did nothing. I ran because of you & Barack Obama. I'm looking u now.
Biden: U know who I am, know who he is. I am anxious to a character of the country on the ballot.
Trump: If this stuff is true about Russia then u're corrupt

Biden: 50 former national intelligence says what he said is a Russian plant. No body believes it.

Trump: You mean the laptop is a Russia Russia hoax? You have to be kidding. Here we go again w/ Russia!

Q: You said BLM is a symbol of hate?

Trump: The first time I heard about BLM & said pigs in a blanket & fry them & they were chanting. And I thought it was terrible. I have relationships w/ all people. Least racist. I got criminal justice reforms. Opportunity zones. Makes me sad

Biden: He pours fuel on racist fire. Get rid of Mexican rapists. Banned Muslims. Made things worse. This guy is a dog whistle.

Trump: You have done nothing other than the crime bill that put 10s of thousands of black men in jail. They remember it. U treat them badly.

Q: Biden, ur bill that u supported that resulted in mass detentions of black men.

Biden: We passed 100%. It was a mistake. I have been trying to change since esp the portion on cocaine. We shouldn't send people to jail on drug offense & go into treatment. Shouldn't go to jail.

Trump: Why didnt' you get it done? That's what politicians done. For 8 years u didn't do anything. But now u say u will get it done when you are in the White House. Just talk & no action.

Biden: We began the process. We lost. That's why we're running.

Trump: Why didn't u do it?

Trump: You put thousands of black men in prison & u had 8 years w/ Obama & u didn't do it. All talk, no action.

Biden: Republican congress. Cancer.

Trump: I talked Democrats into it! Criminal justice reforms!

Q: How'd u combat climate change.

Trump: Trn trees programs. What I want is cleanest water & air. We have the best #s of emission in 35 yrs under this admin. We work w/ industries. Look at China & how filthy it is. Air is filthy. Took us out of Paris cuz we'd have to spend trns.

Trump: China doesn't have it kick in till 2060 but us right away & that would be really unfair.

Biden: Existential threat. Running out of time. Get both environmental + labor to support my plan. To create millions of good paying jobs. 50k charging stations to own electric market

China is dominating the electric car market & we can take it back. Health & jobs at state & clean energy. Wall street firms said my plan will create 8.6 million jobs.

Trump: 6500 will be taken from families. AOC +3 developed the plan. Got a good line of stuff but knows nothing.

Trump: They want to take things down & take big windows into small windows. I want to spend a 100trn dollars to knock down buildings & little windows.

Biden: Plan endorsed by environmental & labor groups. Fastest growing industries are solar & wind. Pay good wages.

Trump: We're energy independent. Don't need to fight wars. Wind is expensive, kill birds, intermittent. Make windmills in Germany & China. Fumes toxic. Solar not enuff to build factories to compete w/ the world. All a pipe. If u want to kill the economy & get rid of oil, fracking

Biden: Rule out fracking. I will try to capture the emissions from fracking. Transition.

Trump: He was against fracking. I am against fracking. He got the nomination & he said Pennsylvenia & changed.

Q: People of color live near oil facilities.
Trump: Families we talk about are employed by these industries. Black & Hispanics gain under my administration & making $. We got Saudi Arabia to cut back supply to save industries. Everyone has cheap gas.
Biden: Live near fence lines

Biden: Polluting & I used to live near those places & u get sick. How do we keep them safe? Will transition away from oil. And the oil industry pollutes. And has to replace w/ renewables. Stop giving them federal subsidies
Trump: Do give to solar & wind. He said he'll destroy oil

Q: Imagine this is ur inauguration, what'll u say to people not voted for u?
Trump: Need to make this a successful country. Before the plague, Got calls that we got the best black, Hispanics emloyment #s The other side wanted to unify. Success'll unify. If he gets in, depression.

Biden: Will chose hope over fear. Can grow, can deal w/ systemic racism, can make sure economy can be motivated by clean energy. What is on the ballot is the character of this country, decency, respect. I will make sure u get that.

IT IS OVER!!!
